The last picture, a day before she gave out.
Attempts to revive the EJ25D in the Fishbowl have been unsuccessful. With a little bit of help from the family, it did live for a hot minute... then it gave out. Ah well.
Next stop: the fabled Craigslist engine. This time, it’s been sitting four years in a dry, sheltered
location. It’s cheap enough that even if it’s a wash, I can just stuff both motors in the car and send it off to the scrappers to recoup my losses.
As a barely even qualified “mechanic”, my brain’s got one thing for me:

Depending on your skill level I highly recommend buying a factory service manual download off eBay. Super helpful and usually $25-30.

I’ve got a Haynes manual and my stepdad’s yanked a few Subaru motors. I think I’m going to be fine.

Hah! Maybe when I’m rolling in cash I’ll stuff one into an early 2000s Legacy sedan. That seems like it would be wicked good fun.

I have the full factory service manual for ‘97, ‘98, & ‘99 in PDF . They should all be pretty similar though. Send me an email at awdboxer4@gmail.com.

Maybe it’ll turn into one in a few years, after I get myself something more reliable and less prone to exploding itself.
